joining me now, dana millbank and his senior partner and msnbc political analyst, eugene robinson. there is an animal husbandry as pekt. the people vote -- is it just that we've gotten to a situation in this country where primary is all you've got? if there's a wide field in the primary and a nutty guy wins it, he's in or she's in for life. so if stockman wins a primary, will it with a wide field? crazy after all of these years? >> that's exactly what happened. he was this guy, in the past, he was homeless, eating out of trash cans, had a drug arrest, long rap sheet. they didn't really pay attention. he just got elected in the republican revolution. wait a second, and they got rid of him. you know what, you can't do that anymore. this guy has a safe seat for life. the only way he doesn't get reelected is if he gets bumped out in a primary. >> did somebody get to this guy's right? >> the thing is -- you can't. the thing is he's now a member in good standing of the republican caucus. he's not some nut out there. he's in the mainstream. >> i have some sense of taste. some. and when i
